Jimmy Johnson Article about the Dallas Cowboys

Look out for Dallas

TIDBIT: Their defense has beaten some very good offenses; they should have beaten Seattle in Seattle. What's really impressive is that they are winning with players who most said had their best days behind them. Drew Bledsoe, Keyshawn Johnson and Terry Glenn — they are all having as good a year as they've ever had.

The reason it is working is because Parcells knows them as individuals. Unlike some other coaches, he knows what they are good at. He's not trying to have Terry Glenn run across the middle. He's not trying to have Keyshawn go deep. He's not asking Drew Bledsoe to be throwing all the time where he has the chance to get killed. He knows what these players are good at.
